Changing the cutting blade of a Hydraulic shearing machine is a critical maintenance task that requires careful attention to safety and precision. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process.

Tools & Materials Needed:

●Appropriate wrenches or spanners

●Screwdrivers

●Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) including gloves and safety glasses

●Torque wrench


Safety Precautions:

Power Off:Ensure the machine is completely powered down and locked out to prevent accidental start-up.

Disconnect Power:Use lockout/tagout procedures to disconnect the power supply.


Step-by-Step Process:

1. Prepare the Machine:

Raise the upper blade to its highest position using the machine's control system.

Place safety blocks under the blade assembly to prevent accidental lowering.


2. Remove the Blade Guard:

Detach any guards or covers that protect the blades. This may require unscrewing bolts or latches.


3.Loosen Blade Mounting Bolts:

Using the appropriate wrenches, carefully loosen the bolts that secure the blade to the blade holder.

Some machines might have adjustment bolts that you need to loosen before removing the main mounting bolts.


4. Support the Blade:

Before fully removing the bolts, ensure the blade is supported. Use lifting equipment or have an assistant support the blade to prevent it from dropping.


5. Remove the Blade:

Carefully remove the bolts and then slide the blade out of the machine. Be cautious of sharp edges.

Turn the blade reversal direction to the adapted blade side. All four edges of the upper and lower blades can be used as cutting edges.

6. Inspect and Clean:

Inspect the blade holder and the mounting area for any debris or damage. Clean these surfaces thoroughly.


7. Install the New Blade Edge:

Position the new blade in the holder, aligning it with the bolt holes.

Insert the bolts and hand-tighten them initially to hold the blade in place.


8. Tighten the Bolts:

Using a torque wrench, tighten the bolts to the manufacturer’s recommended torque settings. Again, use a diagonal tightening sequence to ensure even pressure.

9. Check Blade Clearance:

Adjust the blade clearance according to the machine's specifications. This is crucial for clean cuts and preventing excessive wear.


10. Reattach Guards and Covers:

Reattach any guards or covers that were removed during the process.


11. Remove Safety Blocks and Restore Power:

Carefully remove the safety blocks from under the blade assembly.

Restore power to the machine and perform a test cut to ensure proper installation.


12. Final Inspection:

Check for any unusual sounds or vibrations during the test cut. Re-adjust if necessary.


Maintenance Tips:

① Regularly inspect blades for wear and damage.

②Always use the correct blade type for the material being cut.

③Maintain proper lubrication and cleanliness of the machine.
